Our study is trying to find a relation between multi-parametric MR data (T1 post contrast - MRI, T2* - MRI, FLAIR, Perfusion MRI, Diffusion MRI, MR Spectroscopy) acquired during the follow-up of 29 glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) patients and the relapse of the brain tumour after surgery, as described by the clinically accepted RANO criteria. We find that ensemble classifiers can accurately predict the outcome of the therapy with approximately one month in advance before doctors. The same results were found also when using just perfusion features.
